[edit] Stalking

I was not "stalking" your edits. In case you were wondering, I was actually reading your talk page (curious as to how you interact with other people) and read For An Angel's comment to you. I noticed your afd comment, and decided to help with the article

Huh, your first sentence gets immediately contradicted by the second there, you realize, especially given the poor quality of the "help" (hint: WP:RS describes "non-trivial", which the slightest glance at the so-called New York Times review would have told you). Good luck with that cause-and-effect thing, pal, and your eagerness to assist one long-term, indefinitely blocked troller and two troublemakers in training is noted. Lie down with dogs, get up with fleas, as the saying goes.

Oh, and regarding your "joke", this may be informative, as well as this. --Calton | Talk 00:26, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Bispham Green - I declined your speedy deletion request

Hi there. Just to let you know that I have declined your speedy deletion request on Bispham Green which you had tagged {{db-group}}. Because Bispham is a village, db-group does not apply, in fact no speedy notability criteria apply to geographical locations as they are considered inherently notable. kind regards, nancy ^(talk) 17:25, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AIV reports

The problem was that you spelled "vandal" as "valdal". No biggie, though. I've gone and blocked both users indefinitely; good job reporting them! Keep up the good work, Master of Puppets _{Call me MoP!☺} 06:17, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

Haha, yeah. I noticed but you beat me to it! --pbroks13^talk? 06:52, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Number redirects

I don't really think it necessary to create number redirects such as 763 (number), although I cannot think of a deletion criterion which would allow them to be deleted, except that others near them were previously created by a then-banned user. I would ask you to consider whether it helps the encyclopedia....

— Arthur Rubin (talk) 13:28, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

I can understand that. I actually was thinking that if someone was to look up 763 in the search box that it would redirect to 700 (number), only to realize that I am a complete idiot. I guess I overlooked the "(number)" part. I was going to do all the numbers in the 700's that did not have a page, but I stopped after realizing what exactly I was doing. --pbroks13^talk? 21:00, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

If you wish them gone (the ones you just created, anyway), you can add {{db-author}} to them, and they should be deleted.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Arthur Rubin (talk • contribs)

Done. --pbroks13^talk? 04:18, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] thank you

i have added this info —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joey121214 (talk • contribs) 04:43, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] New Section

You do realize that if I wanted to continue making the Anberlin article factual all I would have to do is create an account, right? An account is no longer considered new after a few constructive edits. Also I could make a 100 accounts today, all with completely different IP's and in a short time they would no longer be new accounts. So don't think you all won, I just got bored with it. Removing disputed content is not "vandalism." Just because three or four of you agree on something doesn't mean that it should be there. You guys act as if you own the article, and no matter what someone does to the article you can go revert crazy and say "goes against our consensus" vandalism, did not discuss on talk page" "etc." I will admit I am new to wikipedia, but will you show me where it says three or four ppl can have a consensus and control the article and be the only ones that can change it. If that is policy I will accept it. I have been wrong before. I thought something lik a genre had to be backed up by third-party unbiased sources, but hey what do I know? 123.242.230.161 (talk) 16:50, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

In regards to your multiple account comment, check out WP:SOCK. In regards to your IP address comment, WP:RANGE will let you know that WP is able to block a range of IP addresses. The reason we revert your edits is because we have made a consensus. But realize that you are able to discuss it on the talk page; we are open to opinions. We will gladly discuss your reasoning behind your edits and are willing to change, but you should not argue through your edit summary. Thanks --pbroks13^talk? 21:52, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

What good would blocking an IP range do? I can make my IP adress what I want, and when I want with all completely new numbers. By the way I read up on policy regarding consensus. It clearly says that it does not affect other users, only the ones involved in the dispute. I am completely new to the situation and did not agree to the consensus. Furthermore, removing false content is not vandalism, nor unconstructive. Making an article be more based on fact than fiction is not "unconstructive." 64.15.157.52 (talk) 22:30, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Then be a nuisance to everyone, have fun. By the way, Wikipedia:DR#discuss clearly states, "Discuss the issue on a talk page. Never carry on a dispute on the article page itself." You should discuss a dispute on the talk page before making changes. That is what our discussion was for. Again, you are welcome to bring up the dispute again on the talk page. --pbroks13^talk? 00:43, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Math notation

Hello. Please note my recent edits to Bernstein's constant.

• "Displayed" TeX should be indented by a preceeding colon.
• In non-TeX notation, variables should be italicized but punctuation (including the parentheses) and digits should not. And spaces should preceed and follow "+", "=", etc. This makes it match TeX style.
• "−5", not "-5".

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:KMHS.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:KMHS.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:22, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Wikimedia Commons

Thank you for uploading images/media to Wikipedia! There is, however, another Wikimedia Foundation project called Wikimedia Commons, a central media repository for all free media. In the future, please consider creating an account and uploading your media there instead. That way, all of the other language Wikipedias can use them too, as well as our many sister projects. This will also allow our visitors to search for, view and use our media in one central location. If you wish to move previous uploads to Commons, see Wikipedia:Moving images to the Commons (you may view images you have previously uploaded by going to your user contributions on the left and choosing the 'image' namespace from the drop down box). Please note that non-free content, such as images claimed as fair use, cannot be uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons. Help us spread the word about Commons by informing other users, and please continue uploading!--OsamaK 06:48, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Arbelos articles

Hi Pbroks13,

thanks for your Arbelos-related articles and illustrations. I just now wanted to ask you to create an illustration of the Woo circles - when I surprizingly notice it's just done. Thanks for that. I'll translate the articles into the German wikipedia using your illustrations (I'm German).

Cheers, --Mosmas (talk) 16:04, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

PS: I am Thomas Schoch, see my German user page :-) --Mosmas (talk) 16:06, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. I was actually meaning to message you, wasn't too sure which account to message you at. Anyways, I was going to ask you if the images accurately portrayed the Schoch line and the Woo circles; please let me know if all of the information is accurate on the articles themselves! Also, let me know if you would rather I talk on your German page (although I don't know German) or on the Wikipedia Commons. --pbroks13^talk? 03:43, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

We can talk on any of my talk pages (English, German or commons), since I have them all on my watchlist. I'm very busy at present, hence it will take a while until I find the time to check your articles and illustrations, and prepare the German articles. At first view the illustrations seem to be correct. Cheers, --Mosmas (talk) 10:51, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

PS: Are you really only 18 years old? --Mosmas (talk) 10:53, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Let's just keep the discussion here, so it is easier to follow. Anything else that is brought up, I'll just message you on your English Wikipedia page (I only ever go on the Commons to upload images); I never go on the German WP, so I wouldn't ever notice a comment or reply.

That's fine, just let me know if you see anything wrong with them. I usually will be able to get to it within a couple of days. And yes, I'm 18 years old, just graduated high school about a month ago. --pbroks13^talk? 02:13, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
